ProtocolIn VitroNapabucasin inhibits the expressions of stemness markers and kill stemness-high cancer cells isolated from several kinds of tumors except PCa. Napabucasin not only inhibits cell proliferation, cell motility, cell survival, colony formation ability, and tumorigenic potential of PCa cells, and increases cell apoptosis and sensitivity to docetaxel, but also effectively blocks sphere formation of PrCSCs and kill them as well as inhibits stemness gene expression. Napabucasin inhibits cell proliferation in PC-3 cells and 22RV1 cells at 48, 72, 96, and 120 h (P<0.05). Cell motility and colony formation ability are closely correlated with the process of tumor metastasis. Napabucasin significantly decreases colony formation and cell motility ability of PCa cell lines in vitro (P<0.05). The proliferation of PC-3 and 22RV1 cells treated with 1 μM Napabucasin are significantly decreased from day 2 to 5 compared with the control group (P<0.05)
In VivoNapabucasin (40 mg/kg) or Docetaxel significantly reduces xenograft tumor growth and tumor volume (TV) compared with PBS (P<0.05). Notably, while no differences are observed between the Napabucasin and the docetaxel groups in PC-3 mouse xenograft models, the TV in Napabucasin group is even lower than docetaxel group in 22RV1 mouse xenograft models (P<0.05). Additionally, Napabucasin or docetaxel also significantly reduces tumor weight compared with PBS (P<0.05)

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in µL DMSO(Master liquid concentration mg/mL) ,Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take µL DMSO master liquid, next add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
